Mrs. Annie Golden, the beloved wife of T. V. Golden, one of O'Neill's literary citizens and most estimable example of a devoted wife and mother, died at her home in this city on September 12, 1915, and was buried from St. Patrick's Church with Requiem High Mass in this city on the 15th. The funeral cortège was a large one, indicating the community's deep seated respect and esteem for the departed friend and benefactor. Mrs. Golden was a model citizen, big hearted and sympathetic, who delighted in performing ostentatious acts of clarity of which her nearest neighbors scarcely ever knew.
Annie Beck, born in Missouri September 16, 1860. In early life she moved with her parents to Iowa where she was married to T. V. Golden on September 2, 1881. They moved to O'Neill in July 1883 where she has resided since, with the exception of six years in Lincoln where she went so as to be with her children while they were attending the University of Nebraska.
She was the mother of nine children, seven of whom survive her, namely: J. Parnell, Lillian, Nartina, Thomas V. Jr., Bernice, Clear and Maxwell, for whose preparation for literary and business equipment for the competitive battle of life she took a very active and great care, which resulted in five of her children becoming graduates of the University of Nebraska. She is also survived by two sisters, Mrs. Fannie Fitzsimmons of Omaha and Mrs. Geo. D. Riggs of Des Moines, Iowa, and two brothers, Shannon Beck of Grand River and George Beck of Tucson, Arizona.
As president of the O'Neill Tuesday Club for several years, she was a force in bringing together those of our city interested in literary work; of her efficient efforts in this direction in bearing fruit now and will continue to do so in years to come. She was possessed of more than her share of literary and scholastic ability and was the only lady ever elected on the O'Neill School Board.
No person in O'Neill could be called away who had more devoted friends and no one whose life is more worthy of emulation. The husband and children of Mrs. Golden have the hearty sympathy of friends everywhere.
